Here, I assist James Turrell (right) with the final touches of the
generator before it is to be installed at Roden Crater.

The camp at Roden Crater was approximately 25 miles from the nearest
electricity. With an ample supply of wind at the crater, this generator
should easily supply enough electricity for the small needs of the
site.

In working with this prototype, I felt like I was working with history
and helping to find a solution to renewable energy. This was one of
the most fulfilling projects that I have ever worked on.

This wind-powered electrical generator was designed by James Turrell
and a friend. This friend was killed in a plane crash at the Sedona
airport flying one of the planes that the team was restoring and never
saw the windmill reach this stage of development.
